Web Series Review: OPERATION SAFED SAGAR is a gripping series highlighting an important chapter of the Kargil War

Star Cast: Siddharth, Jimmy Shergill, Abhay Verma, Mihir Ahuja, Taaruk Raina Director: Oni Sen Synopsis: OPERATION SAFED SAGAR is a stirring tale of courage, sacrifice and extraordinary valour. The story is set in 1999, when Indian Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee (Aanjjan Srivastav) travels to Lahore aboard the newly inaugurated bus service, hoping to usher in a new era of peace between India and Pakistan. However, unbeknownst to him, and even to Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif (Vinay Pathak), Pakistans Chief of Army Staff, General Pervez Musharraf (Manu Rishi Chaddha), is secretly orchestrating a sinister military operation in Kashmir. During the harsh winter months, troops from both countries would traditionally vacate several posts located at extreme altitudes in the Himalayas. Taking advantage of this arrangement, Musharraf orders a large number of Pakistani soldiers, disguised as mujahideen, to infiltrate and occupy strategically vital positions on the Indian side of the Line of Control. By the time the Indian Defence forces discover the infiltration, the enemy has already established itself across several fortified mountaintop positions. The Pakistani forces enjoy a formidable advantage: they are stationed at higher altitudes and can easily target Indian soldiers attempting the treacherous climb. Faced with an unprecedented challenge, the Indian Army seeks assistance from the Indian Air Force. The Golden Arrows squadron, stationed at Air Force Station Bathinda, is summoned for the mission. Initially, its pilots are tasked with conducting dangerous sorties and capturing photographs that can help the Army pinpoint the exact locations of the infiltrators. The risks are enormous, but Squadron Leader Ajay Ahuja (Siddharth), Wing Commander B S Dhanoa aka Tony (Jimmy Shergill) and the Commanding Officer of the Golden Arrows rise to the occasion. They are ably supported by their young officers Flying Officer C H Bal Reddy aka Baldy (Mihir Ahuja), Flight Lieutenant Jitendra Sangwan aka Sangy (Taaruk Raina), Flying Officer R S Dhaliwal aka Dhali (Abhay Verma), Flying Officer Amit Gupta aka Goofy (Arnav Bhasin) and others. How these brave pilots overcome impossible odds and play a decisive role in the Kargil War forms the crux of the series. Operation Safed Sagar Story Review: Sandeep Jain, Nikhil Ravi, Barun Kashyap and Abhijeet Singh Parmar's story is fantastic. Moreover, it focuses on the lesser-known aspects of the 1999 Kargil war. Sandeep Jain, Nikhil Ravi, Barun Kashyap and Abhijeet Singh Parmar's screenplay is captivating and despite the long length, it completely keeps viewers gripped to the goings-on. However, in a few places, the writing could have been tighter. Abhijeet Singh Parmar, Nikhil Ravi and Sandeep Jain's dialogues (additional dialogues by Irshad Kamil and Barun Kashyap) are simple and sharp, depending on the situation. Oni Sens direction is superb. He had a considerable challenge at hand, as several films and shows have explored the Kargil War in the past. Moreover, aerial-action films such as FIGHTER [2024], SKY FORCE [2025] and TOP GUN: MAVERICK [2022] are still fresh in viewers minds. Yet, OPERATION SAFED SAGAR succeeds in carving out an identity of its own. To begin with, no film or series has highlighted the Indian Air Forces contribution to the 1999 Kargil War in detail. Viewers will be amazed to learn that the pilots were required to accomplish something that had never been attempted before in the history of aerial warfare. Hence, they'll be left with an immense sense of pride. However, OPERATION SAFED SAGAR doesnt just focus on the adventures of the Air Force. Running parallel is a fascinating track exploring the strained relationship between General Pervez Musharraf and Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif. In fact, this portion arguably leaves an even greater impact. The manner in which Musharraf keeps the Pakistani cabinet in the dark and sets the conflict in motion is shocking. The realization that these events are based on actual incidents is certain to leave viewers astonished. The series also arrives at an opportune time, as DHURANDHAR has heightened the audiences curiosity about Pakistans political and military establishment. Consequently, the Musharraf portions in OPERATION SAFED SAGAR have the potential to become a major talking point on social media. On the flipside, the series is a bit lengthy, and some of the initial portions fail to make the desired impact. Baldys personal struggle, too, is not entirely convincing. Moreover, a series of this scale and patriotic fervour deserved a stronger soundtrack. At least one song should have had a rousing, anthem-like quality that could have elevated the emotional impact. Operation Safed Sagar Performances: Siddharth plays the lead part with aplomb. Surprisingly, he has less screen time, but he makes up for it with his exceptional performance. Jimmy Shergill delivers a performance that is restrained yet packs a punch. Abhay Verma is seen in a new avatar and performance-wise, hes first rate. Mihir Ahuja comes next and leaves a mark. Taaruk Raina and Arnav Bhasin dont get much scope, but they do well nevertheless. Manu Rishi Chaddha is the scene-stealer. His resemblance to Pervez Musharraf is uncanny and he does full justice to his part. Vinay Pathak, too, puts his best foot forward. Aanjjan Srivastav does a fine job, while ensuring the character doesnt come across as a caricature. Adil Hussain (Air Marshal Vinod Patney) lends able support. From the Pakistani establishment side, Mohan Kapur (Lt Gen Aziz Khan) leaves the maximum mark, followed by S M Zaheer (Muhammad Sharif; Nawaz Sharif's father), Lalit Parimoo (Sartaj Aziz; Pakistan Foreign Minister) and Danish Hussain (Maj Gen Javed Hassan). Barun Sobti (Colonel Sartaj Singh), Mahesh Manjrekar (Air Chief Marshal Raghavan Deshmukh), Meiyang Chang (Xu) and Sanjay Suri (Wing commander Sandeep Chhabra aka Sandy) appear in cameos and do a great job. Finally, speaking about the actresses, Amrita Bagchi (Alka; Ajay Ahuja's wife) leaves a tremendous mark. Shell surely be seen in a new light after this show. Prajakta Koli (Madhavi) makes her presence felt. Dia Mirza (Kamal) is lovely and one wishes she had more to do in the show. Operation Safed Sagar music and other technical aspects: Anurag Saikia's music doesnt entice. The songs 'Aazma Le', 'Dilwaale Dilsaaz Parinde' and 'Woh Aaega' are not of chartbuster variety. Anurag Saikia's background score is much better and enhances the impact. Setu's cinematography is breathtaking. Amritpal Singh and Stefan Richter's action adds to the excitement. Atomic Arts, Knack Studios, Labyrinth Cinematic Solutions Pvt Ltd, Phantom FX, yFX Studios, Zebufx and MergeXR's VFX is of superior quality. The aerial aggression scenes seem completely authentic and match global standards. Uma Biju and Biju Antony's costumes and Meghna Gandhi's production design are classy. Micky Sharma's editing could have been sharper. Operation Safed Sagar Review Conclusion: On the whole, OPERATION SAFED SAGAR is a gripping and well-made series that brings an important chapter of the 1999 Kargil War to the screen and leaves viewers with an overwhelming sense of pride. While the Indian Air Force portions are exciting, the Pervez Musharraf-Nawaz Sharif track adds an unexpected and fascinating layer to the narrative. It is certain to spark conversations and become a major talking point in the days to come. Recommended! Rating - 4 stars

J&K lags in higher education enrolment: Centre

Srinagar, Aug 6: Jammu & Kashmir's Gross Enrolment Ratio (GER) in higher education stood at 21.5 per cent during 2023 to 24, significantly lower than the national average of 30 per cent, the Union Ministry of Education informed the Rajya Sabha on Wednesday. The information was shared in a written reply by Minister of State for Education Sukanta Majumdar, based on the findings of the All India Survey on Higher Education (AISHE) 2023 to 24. The data showed that J&K performed better than neighbouring Ladakh, which recorded a GER of 11.9 per cent. However, the Union Territory remained behind several states, including Himachal Pradesh at 46.4 per cent, Punjab at 30.8 per cent, Haryana at 35.1 per cent and Delhi at 53 per cent. Bihar reported 17.7 per cent, while Puducherry topped the country with 72.3 per cent. Replying to the question in the Upper House, the Minister said the National Education Policy, 2020 envisages raising the country's GER in higher education to 50 per cent by 2035 through expansion of institutions and reforms in the education system. He said the Centre has taken several measures to improve access to higher education, particularly in educationally underserved regions. Since 2014 to 15, eight Central Universities, seven IITs, eight IIMs, 16 IIITs, two IISERs, one NIT and 12 AIIMS have been established across the country. The government is also implementing scholarship and fellowship schemes for students belonging to SC, ST, OBC, minority and other disadvantaged sections. Besides, initiatives such as SWAYAM, online and distance learning, flexible admissions, multiple entry and exit provisions, and the option to pursue two academic programmes simultaneously are aimed at improving enrolment. The Minister informed the House that the Pradhan Mantri Uchchatar Shiksha Abhiyan, launched in 2023 with an outlay of Rs 12,926.10 crore for 2023 to 24 to 2025 to 26 and extended till March 31, 2028, gives priority to districts with low enrolment and poor gender parity. The scheme supports development of hostels, laboratories, smart classrooms and digital libraries. He further said the approved expansion of IIT Jammu, along with four other newer IITs, under the 2025 to 26 Union Budget involves an investment of Rs 11,828.79 crore and will create capacity for an additional 6,500 students. The 2026 to 27 Union Budget has also proposed five university townships near major industrial and logistics corridors and one girls' hostel in every district to encourage higher education, particularly in STEM courses.

OHH MY DOG is an endearing entertainer that scores with its adorable canine hero Movie Review: OHH MY DOG is an endearing and unusual entertainer

Star Cast: Mahi Rai, Pankaj Tripathi, Pavan Malhotra Director: Amit Rai Ohh My Dog Movie Review Synopsis: OHH MY DOG is the story of two dogs and their devoted masters. In Dibrugarh, Assam, a dog named Momo is adopted by a young boy, Apu (Mahi Rai), and his parents (Geeta Agarwal and Prashant Kashyap). One day, Momo suddenly disappears from outside their house. Apu and his mother approach the local police station for help. However, the SHO, Mohd Yusuf Hazari (Vijay Mishra), refuses to take action. He informs them that Momo may have been abducted by a gang involved in smuggling dogs for their meat and advises them not to harbour much hope. However, Apu refuses to accept defeat and decides to track down Momo on his own. Meanwhile, in Patna, Bihar, the situation is reversed. Oscars master, Prince (Nikhil Kumar), an underage construction worker, is kidnapped. It is Oscar who raises an alarm over Princes disappearance, prompting the others at the construction site to take the matter seriously. They approach Princes teacher (Pankaj Tripathi) for help. Here, too, the police officer (Rajesh Kumar) is reluctant to assist them. What happens next forms the rest of the film. Ohh My Dog Movie Story Review: Amit Rai's story is unconventional as the story centres around dogs. Amit Rai's screenplay is gripping and peppered with thrilling as well as clapworthy moments. However, the writing gets stretched in some places. Amit Rai's dialogues are conversational and, in some places, he has also cleverly infused some funny one-liners. Amit Rais direction is praiseworthy. It is no cakewalk to helm a film in which a dog is one of the principal characters. In this regard, Amit deserves brownie points for getting the animal to perform convincingly and even execute action sequences. Moreover, Oscars actions are so adorable and heroic that children are sure to lap them up. Bollywood rarely makes films primarily for young audiences, and OHH MY DOG comes as a breath of fresh air in this space. Meanwhile, the parallel track involving the child in Assam is equally immersive. A particular sequence in which Apu traces his missing dogs movements from a nullah to a riverbank stands out. The entry of the RTO officer (Pavan Malhotra) further adds to the madness. On the flipside, at 150 minutes, the film is a little too long and could easily have been shorter by around 15 minutes. A few portions are needlessly stretched, while the writing becomes unconvincing in places. The behaviour of the SHO in Dibrugarh is difficult to digest. Apu uses illegal apps to track down the kidnappers in the presence of the police, and the officer should ideally have objected to it. Also, considering his ulterior motive, it seems unlikely that he would openly inform Apus mother about the gang involved in kidnapping dogs. The sequence featuring 250 dogs is visually appealing and is sure to wow viewers, but it also takes away from the films realism. Lastly, the music fails to make an impact. Ohh My Dog Movie Review Performances: The human actors put their best foot forward, but it is the dog Bruno, who plays Oscar, who takes the cake with his cuteness and bravery. Mahi Rai comes next. He puts up a confident performance and dominates the other actors. Pankaj Tripathi is adorable in what could be called a supporting role. Pavan Malhotra has a late entry and makes up for it with his arresting screen presence. Geeta Agarwal gets into the skin of her character. Vijay Mishra and Rajesh Kumar leave a huge mark. Nikhil Kumar is aptly cast. Sulakhyana Baruah (Krishna; Apu's teacher) is a great find. Bulloo Kumar (Kidnapper) puts up a fine act. Ohh My Dog movie music and other technical aspects: Aman Pant's music doesnt entice. However, Mangesh Dhakde's background score is much better and in sync with the films happenings. Mate Herbai's cinematography is terrific. Bihar and Assam have never been captured before in this manner in a Hindi film. Some shots are captured from the point of view of the dog and it adds to the tension. Ashwini Shrivastav's production design is realistic while Isaac Hamon and Sunil Rodrigues' action is entertaining. White Apple's VFX is satisfactory. Suvir Nath's editing could have been crisper. Ohh My Dog Movie Review Conclusion: On the whole, OHH MY DOG is an endearing and unusual entertainer that scores with its adorable canine hero, engaging performances and several thrilling, clapworthy moments. However, the low pre-release buzz and the arrival of strong competition next week could restrict its box-office prospects. It will therefore need positive word of mouth to draw audiences to cinemas and sustain at the ticket window.
